I am aware it is not the "exact" quote. Due to my tiny ass forearms had to have less little words. But hey I'm hell'a stoked on it :) my way to tribute a skier who has influenced me in so many ways.Click for larger image

RIP CR.

That is awesome man. Getting ink, I think takes some balls, and to do it as a tribute to someone like CR, extremely admirable. I fully approve.

dont get me wrong, not hating.

but i honestly dont know if i could get a tattoo in honor of some guy ive never met. (or maybe you were good friends with CR)  idk maybe ive never experienced it but ive never considered someone i didnt actually know to be a super human mentor or anything.

but hey, if CR and that quote, meant that much to you than props. if its something that means alot to you and you like it, thats all that matters.

double post-

Thanks for all the likes appreciate it :)


And yes i never met CR. But it's more the quote itself. like that segment was pre much just after i got into big mountain. It just pushed me so much like id think about it before dropping into a gnar line.
+im big into tattoos so to me its my way of doing something.

it's a good idea with the quote in all but imo it just doesn't look that great. No approval here. But this is NSG and i know its not the best place for asking.

You realise the ski community exists outside of NS?

I was amazed when my supervisor from work even knew it.

I know most of the posters have approved or whatev, but honestly who gives a fuck. You obvi wanted it and like it, more meaningful than a flying squirrel... You're the only one this should affect, who gives a shit what these kiddies think

I don't know man.  I'm not really digging it.  I'm all for remembering CR, heck, even my senior quote last year was one of CR's.  But a tattoo, that's a little far, at least for me.  At least he will always be remembered every single day by you, that's all that matters.

I would never get a tatoo, especially not as large as that. But if you like it, congrats

i think its cool to get a tribute to someone. but unless you really knew the person its kinda lame and tacky. and that tattoo looks horrible. horrible placement. just looks terrible. sorry man. just telling you my honest opinion.

i think your gonna want to cover this up in the future.

and just to be clear this is on your forearm right? if its on you inner arm a take back the horrible placement comment. but a huge quote like that just almost always looks bad in tattoo for no matter what.

Discounting the fact it's about CR it...
-should be in quotes
-ugly font
-arms too small for how massive the font is. No matter how much you say you got it in tribute to CR...it's still an ugly fucking tattoo... About skiing
